MOSQUITOES.

There's many ? subtitle skein through lie,
That knits man kind together
One more example comes to light,
since August brought cold weather.
Wichita from DER the world,
Hath drawn her wealth and power
And last the gay mosqulso comes
To haunt the midnight hour
IT'S sweet to know as morn draws nigh,
Your eve balls still uncovered,l
Your neighbors have enjoyed the muse
That your pillow lowered
If perchance you're over come,
And fall away to doing,
The Opera Puffe' on your nose,
Strike attitude imposing,
And burst into such wild refrain
You raise your hand 10 Danish,
But ere you plant it In your eye
The airy things do wants.
Not that you've turned them from this plan
Like Byron, their DEPRESSION,
Gives strength where weakness must ensue
If in TOO close succession.
Ere YOUR hand is back TO place
The light brigade are coming;
The prelude to their deadly work,
A cold blood thirsty humming.
Do not claw the air in vain,
You only set them laughing;
Yes, they trifie with your woes,
Fen while you are chatting.
All, the morning dawns at last,
Your foe is drunk and Keeling,
And here ensues civil war,
Past history's revealing.
And when they see their doom is sealed,
I'm sweet revenge thou ''lovest;'0
They look you in the eye and buzz,
take back the blood thou gavest."
